I post from a specific blog on occassion and the link won't work for people because it has a four-letter swear word within the person's name which switches to a #.

if possible, please add S-e-R-e-n-S-h-i-t-h-a to the list of accepted words


Thanks!

yeah sometimes swear filters get a little over bearing

FANY - F_A_N_Y - a member of the first aid nursing yeomanry [ military medical unit in the UK ]

there are more i could listy that draw the ire of other forum swear filters - but generally i consider ATS to be quite lenient

Filters are idiots. I hate them because they are clueless little undead automatons that have no brains and I'm surprised they don't go crazy every Saturday. On the other hand, they save staff time making hundreds of edits.

Why would filters be designed to edit out letters which are only part of a bigger word anyway??? Some human (sort of) programmer had to make that idiotic decision. The bots only do what some idiot told them to do.

I will use this opportunity to get on my soap box again and remind all that I would not be bothered whatsoever if there were no decency/PC filters whatsoever.

OK, thanks. I step down knowing that did no good whatsoever .......
